An American prisoner, prisoner advocate and author was recently targeted by the U.S. Counter-Terrorism Unit for his prison writing activities.

Instead of investigating terrorists the federal prison’s CTU seems preoccupied with finding creative ways to shut up a single prison writer who has absolutely nothing to do with terrorism.”

— Christopher Zoukis

PETERSBURG, VA, U.S., July 31, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ — An American-born prisoner, prisoner advocate and author was recently targeted by the U.S. Counter-Terrorism Unit for his writing activities in a clear case of attempted censorship by the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

“I’m a U.S.-born citizen with no ties to any terrorist organization, I don’t understand why I’m being targeted like this,” says Christopher Zoukis, a current inmate at FCI Petersburg Medium serving time for sexual offences he was found guilty of in 2004.

Zoukis was just recently released from six weeks of solitary confinement at Petersburg after three incident reports were taken out against him by a member of the Federal Bureau of Prison’s Counter Terrorism Unit (CTU), an intelligence agency tasked with investigating and preventing terrorist acts within U.S. borders.

Specifically, he was charged with conducting a business and unauthorized contact with the public for his involvement. The charges seem to stem from Zoukis’ involvement in a free, electronic news service for prisoners called Corrlinks.com/TRULINCS, publishing three books, running three education-based websites and an interview he did on the phone where he discussed one of his books as well as the underground economies of prisons.

“Instead of investigating terrorists and trying to foil plots, the Federal Bureau of Prison’s CTU seems to be preoccupied with finding creative ways to shut up a single prison writer who has absolutely nothing to do with terrorism,” says Zoukis. “Instead of focusing on ISIS threats or other terrorist plots, they are spending their time and taxpayer money focusing on what I post at PrisonEducation.com and the content of my latest book or interview.”

While this isn’t the first time Zoukis has been targeted for his writing activities (Zoukis has previously had seven incident reports for the same charges in 2012 and 2014 which were expunged), and it’s certainly not the first time a prisoner has undergone attack for writing about federal prisons, it is the first time the CTU has become involved.

So, what led this unit to take notice of Zoukis in the first place? In March of this year, the same official from the CTU instituted a ban on the Corrlinks.com/TRULINCS service, which was overturned in April. Shortly after that, this official contacted the Petersburg Special Investigative Services (SIS) department to get them to write incident reports against Zoukis. The Petersburg officials refused, as they had already laid those same charges previously and Zoukis was found not guilty. Just after that, the CTU official laid the charges himself. As a result, Zoukis was placed in solitary confinement for six weeks before seeing the Discipline Hearing Officer, while other prisoners were kept for one to two weeks maximum. Zoukis was found guilty of the business charges, not guilty of the other charges, and was released from solitary in mid-July. He plans on appealing the guilty charge.

The federal prison’s CTU involvement in a writer’s activities is concerning as it threatens free speech and First Amendments rights, but also that terrorism funds are being used to seemingly censor a prison writer.

(July 31, 2017) – While we express our in-principle support for good neighbourly relations, advancement of relations and the integration of Macedonia into European and Atlantic structures, we cannot at the same time not condemn the contents of this agreement which, despite all the fine phrases, is in fact contrary to the abovementioned values.

The Agreement on Good Neighbourliness between Macedonia and Bulgaria is inequitable and satisfies Bulgarian nationalist aspirations more than it does Macedonian national interests. It calls into question the sovereignty of the Republic of Macedonia and the freedoms of certain parts of its citizenry and violates its authority as an independent state possessing the same rights and entitlements as other states. Good neighbourliness can only be constructed on the basis of equality and good will and not by means of blackmail, humiliation and abuse of one’s position of power.

By means of this agreement Macedonia has taken a further step towards its abandonment of the Macedonian minority in Bulgaria. The earlier declarative abandonment has now become part of the Agreement on “Good Neighbourliness”. That is a logical and shameful next step which comes after 25 years of violation of the Constitution by the governments of the Republic of Macedonia which have completely and consistently ignored their constitutional obligation to care for and protect the rights of the Macedonian minorities in the neighbouring countries and especially in Bulgaria and Greece. The agreement is anti-constitutional precisely for this reason!

Macedonia, via this agreement, in accordance with the views of Bulgaria, undertakes that not only will it not make representations on behalf of the Macedonian minority and support its organisations in Bulgaria (Article 11.5), something which it has not done up until now anyway, but also will not allow any activities by such organisations to occur on its territory or allow activities by its own citizens on Macedonian territory which support such organisations (Article 11.2). Nor will it allow media coverage of the activities and problems experienced by Macedonian organisations and the Macedonian minority in Bulgaria (Article 11.6)

In addition, it creates a mechanism thorough which Bulgaria can place certain conditions on and blackmail Macedonia during the process relating to its integration into European and Atlantic structures. (Articles 8 and 12). It creates the possibility for Bulgaria to intervene in independent academic research and media freedoms and imposes a redefinition of concepts such as hate speech in relation to each and every opinion which supports the notion that Macedonians are a separate and distinct national and ethnic group. The statements of certain officials in Bulgaria bear witness to the fact that this is indeed Bulgaria’s intention and that the agreement is but a first step and not a final solution, despite attempts by certain naive politicians in Skopje to portray it as such.

The terminology used: “two states and their peoples”, “the Macedonian language, according to the Constitution of the Republic of Macedonia”, “joint history” relativises the Macedonian nation. Joint celebrations of whatever type in a situation where the Macedonian nation and identity are openly denied by Bulgaria will only serve to satisfy such negation and will not contribute to overcoming any misunderstandings which may exist.

This agreement represents an unprecedented interference of politics in the study of history-it prescribes the formation of political bodies which will interpret history and report back to their respective governments. We wish to remind that history is a science and any kind of interference by politicians in its study is inadmissible. This represents but another tool for blackmail through which Bulgaria will insist on the acceptance of the Bulgarian view of the history of Macedonia becoming a condition for the gaining of membership of European institutions under the guise of “good neighbourliness”.

We therefore consider the Agreement unacceptable, insulting to Macedonia and the Macedonian people, unprincipled and shameful for both signatory countries. In addition, contrary to the expectations of the signatories, it will not contribute to good neighbourliness, but will only increase mistrust and create genuine hate of Bulgaria, instead of the imaginary hate that Sofia now complains of.

Neither the Macedonian minority in Bulgaria, the Macedonian Diaspora, and we are convinced, the Macedonian nation in general feel bound in any way by the unequal clauses of this agreement. They will oppose every attempt to limit their human freedoms, will continue their struggle for dignity, rights and justice and oppose every attempt to prevent that struggle from continuing, irrespective of whether it emanates from Sofia or Skopje.

Wiseguyreports.Com Adds “Smart Transportation -Market Demand, Growth, Opportunities and Analysis of Top Key Player Forecast To 2022” To Its Research Database

The population of the world is growing at about 2% a year or faster than any other period in human history. While there has been a steady increase in population growth during the past two or three centuries, it has been rapid in the past 20 years. United Nations (UN) predicted that by the year 2020, over 60% of the world population would be concentrated in the urban cities. This will trigger an increasing demand for transport infrastructure and urban mobility. Smart cities are the most important drivers of economic growth of the country and the backbone of cities happen to be the intelligent transportation infrastructure. Transport is a significant component of modern economy; transportation accounts for 6-12% of the GDP in many developed countries.

Though transportation has greatly improved our lives, quite a few problems remain unsolved, including traffic, road accidents, congestions, and vehicle emissions. According to the European Commission, the EU loses 1% of their GDP per year, due to congestion around the urban areas. Only road transport accounts for more than 40% of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emission across the globe and 60% accounts for other pollutants. As the use of transportation facilities continue to upsurge the advancement of new technologies in the transportation infrastructure, the urban sector will face a tough challenge with the management of transportation systems.

The improving performance and technological advancements in the operational technologies are now starting to have a significant impact on the urban mass transport industry. Smart transportation is all about integrating ICT with the existing transportation infrastructure, delivering real-time online information about the traffic flow and passengers/commuters. With the help of digital technologies, such as advanced control systems and sensor technologies, transportation around the cities can be monitored & controlled efficiently. Smart transportation also includes interfacing smart intermodal technologies with other modes of transport and setting up or upgrading the smart solutions, so that passengers can take informed decisions with respect to their transport requirements.

Smart cities around the world have already deployed transportation solutions along with infrastructure, to support the transportation systems of the future. The solutions have proven to be proficient in diminishing traffic congestion issues. Even though Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have been around since 1994, the contemporary solutions provide tools for traffic estimation, parking guidance, passenger information, consulting services, data analytics & decision support, fare collection, smart ticketing, and insurance telematics. For instance, the traffic management solutions, including smart signaling solution, route guidance solution, passenger information solutions, electronic fare payment, and smart ticketing solutions are becoming ubiquitous in transportation systems.

The solutions crunch the entire traffic data to predict traffic jams an hour before they occur. Predictive data analytics and decision support operate in conjunction, to provide relevant information useful in taking optimal decisions, as per a city's volatile transport needs. These solutions are having an impact on the quality and accessibility of information for delivering an enhanced passenger experience. While the impacts of these technologies are already ostensive in many systems, there is a potential for a much stronger impact during the forecast period. The report includes an in-depth study of the market trends, market sizing, competitive mapping, emerging technology segments, and market dynamics of the smart transportation market.
